A beam of sword energy flew past at low altitude, landed on the other side of the Yin Mountain, and transformed into two figures.
Lu Mingshu ran towards the northwest with the seriously injured Yan Wugui on his back.
Just now, she forcibly flew away with her Yin Qi, and almost used up her remaining profound strength. Right now, she is relying on the meager profound strength from meditation to continue moving forward.
The person on the back moved, and the voice was weak: "You... you have no profound strength, put me down..."
"No way!" Lu Mingshu threw a handful of pills into his mouth, "We have to leave quickly before the magic circle is closed."
"There's no need to go..."
"Why are you pretending to be stupid?" After scolding, Lu Mingshu buried his head and ran for a while, then continued, "The Demon Emperor himself said that you inherited his demon nature, who knows what those people will do to you."
"They... won't be so heartless..." When he said this, his tone was not very sure.
"Oh," Lu Mingshu pointed at him unceremoniously, "Are you so confident? The princess is still alive and dead, and the king of Zhongzhou seems to be seriously injured. It's hard to say whether he will survive. How is your relationship with those people in Qizhen Temple? Don’t I need to talk about it? They just suppressed the Demon Emperor, how could they know that they wouldn’t be like an enemy, and ban you as well!”
After taking a breath, she said again: "Okay, let Qizhen show mercy to you for the sake of your master's incense and affection. There were so many people at that time, so you are sure that people from other sects will not have any objections? It's not me Races, their hearts must be different, they even have to be wary of driving out barbarians, let alone you are the son of the Demon Emperor."
There was a low laugh, intermittently, and he said: "Even if this is the case, it has nothing to do with you, why bother with yourself..."
She was suddenly furious: "Can you shut up? You talk so much!"
The two gradually left the Yin Mountain, but Lu Mingshu didn't dare to slow down, nor did he dare to call out Xiao Dai, for fear of being noticed. Before, while they were dealing with the Demon Emperor, she snatched someone up and slipped out of the hall and escaped from the imperial mausoleum. Because she wasn't sure how they would deal with the Demon Emperor's son when these people controlled the Demon Emperor.
It is true that without him, the Demon Emperor cannot be restrained. However, with the complexity of people's hearts, how can we simply compare merits and demerits? They have seen how powerful the Demon Emperor is. Who knows if he will lose control in the future. At that time, there will be no other person who has learned the secret art of blood to help them control him.
No one has chased him yet, but Yinshan's magic circle is gradually taking shape and will be restored soon.
An hour later, they entered a branch of the Yin Mountain.
Here is the junction of Dahuang and Beiming. After crossing this mountain, you will arrive at the boundary of Beiming. There are many tributaries in Beiming. At that time, even if someone chases them, it will be difficult to find them.
In fact, there is a shorter way to go, and you don't even have to climb the mountain. But that was the intersection of the three lands of Beiming and Yinshan in Zhongzhou. At this critical moment, if someone bumped into him, the consequences would be unpredictable.
Yan Wugui has been half dreaming and half awake, her sweat dripped on the back of his hand, which made him wake up briefly: "They didn't chase after you, you... find a place to rest..."
"No, it's safe to cross this mountain. Stop now, it's easy for them to find."
The Yin Qi invading the body has not yet been expelled, and the neck pinched by the Demon Emperor is burning hot, and coupled with the exhaustion of profound strength, he is holding his breath right now.
With his back on his back, he laughed lowly.
"What are you smirking at?" She is not in a good temper now.
But it didn't affect his good mood at all.
"In order to save me, you don't hesitate to become a public enemy of Xuanmen, how can I be unhappy?"
Lu Mingshu's eyes moved, this is what Xie Lianzhen would say.
"But if you do this, you will hurt yourself." This was Yan Wugui's tone.
Lu Mingshu wanted to say something, but hesitated for a while, and finally didn't say anything.
Something floated down, and my neck felt cold.
She looked up, only to realize that it was snowing.
It is now late autumn in October, and there is already snow on the high mountains.
The snowflakes kept falling, getting bigger and bigger. They entered the snow-packed area, and their feet creaked and creaked in the snow.
"In their eyes, you and I have long been accomplices."
The serious injury and cold made his reaction very slow, and after a while, he realized that Lu Mingshu was answering his previous question.
Immediately afterwards, she heard her say: "Besides, you became what you are now to save me. If I ignore you, wouldn't I be disregarding morality?"
"Is it just... morality?" He asked in a low voice.
Lu Mingshu remained silent. He knew what answer he wanted, but he couldn't give this answer yet.
"Ahem!" He coughed out a mouthful of blood stuck in his throat, and smiled wryly, "What a ruthless woman, she went through life and death for you, calculated everything for you, even if you are an enemy of the world, it doesn't matter, you won't be moved ?"
A snowflake fell on her eyelashes, and in the blink of an eye, it turned into water.
"Yeah," she murmured, "I'm such a ruthless woman, what do you like about me..."
The higher the mountain, the colder the snow. The person on the back was breathing weakly and barely moved.
Lu Mingshu fed him medicine, which was still effective at first, but later on the effect became weaker and weaker.
"Hey! Don't fall asleep." She turned her head and called.
He blinked and gave a confused "hmm".
"I'd like to tell you good news. I think the possibility of the princess surviving is very high."
Hearing this sentence, he barely lifted his spirits.
"That slap was actually merciful." She said, "I'm close, so I can see clearly."
"Really?" He smiled weakly, "Then I'm relieved."
His reaction made Lu Mingshu frown. She said this because she wanted him to raise his desire to survive, instead of leaving with peace of mind.
So she said again: "If something happens to you, the princess will be sad."
After a while, he who was lying on his back responded softly.
"And your father, he never gave up on you, if not for his consciousness, we would have been wiped out by the Demon Emperor long ago."
"..." he said slowly, "I know, I don't hate him anymore."
There was relief in his tone.
Lu Mingshu became anxious. Why did she say these words with the opposite intention
There was no movement for a while, she was worried, and turned her head to call: "Brother Yan!"
no respond.
"Xie Lianzhen?"
Still nothing.
The snow fell even more heavily, and the field of vision was a vast expanse of whiteness, with no end in sight or where it came from.
Lu Mingshu clasped his hand, his lips trembled slightly, and called softly, "Xie Xingchen?"
Three seconds later, he coughed on his back, and his weak voice seemed to be smiling: "Is this the first time you called my name?"
Lu Mingshu's eyes turned hot, and he grabbed his hand: "Persist a little longer, and you will reach Beiming after you climb over this mountain."
He continued: "My name is Xie Xingchen, don't make a mistake in the future."
"Um."
But I heard him muttering to himself: "Whether Yan Wugui or Xie Lianzhen, I am... Xie Xingshen."
